Greetings from Flint, MI
New member here from Vehicle City (or Buick City as it was once known).
Been working on my metalshaping skills for a couple of years having attended one of Ron Fournier's workshops and Ron Covell's weekend drive-bys in the western part of my fair state. Working on a little custom roadster pickup based loosely on the classic Ford RPU but strateched a bit to accommodate my somewhat taller than average frame. Guess I could have bought everything but where's the challenge in that? I'm working on a superleggera approach to building the body as the tubing framework gives me a better guide to panel shape than trying to do it "freehand". Trying to develop a more scientific approach to the english wheel other than creating scrap metal at a prodigious rate... FJ
